us sang-e-astan pe jabin-e-niyaz hai

us sañg-e-āstāñ pe jabīn-e-niyāz hai

vo apnī jā-namāz hai aur ye namāz hai

nā-sāz hai jo ham se usī se ye saaz hai

kyā ḳhuub dil hai vaah hameñ jis pe naaz hai

pahuñchā hai shab kamand lagā kar vahāñ raqīb

sach hai harām-zāde kī rassī darāz hai

us but pe gar ḳhudā bhī ho āshiq to aa.e rashk

har-chand jāntā huuñ ki vo pāk-bāz hai

maddāh-e-ḳhāl-e-rū-e-butāñ huuñ mujhe ḳhudā

baḳhshe to kyā ajab ki vo nukta-navāz hai

Dartā huuñ ḳhanjar us kā na bah jaa.e ho ke aab

mere gale meñ nāla-e-āhan-gudāz hai

darvāza mai-kade kā na kar band mohtasib

zālim ḳhudā se Dar ki dar-e-tauba baaz hai

ḳhāna-ḳharābiyāñ dil-e-bīmār-e-ġham kī dekh

vo hī davā ḳharāb hai jo ḳhāna-sāz hai

shabnam kī jā-e-gul se Tapaktī haiñ shoḳhiyāñ

gulshan meñ kis kī ḳhāk-e-shahīdān-e-nāz hai

aah o fuġhāñ na kar jo khule 'zauq' dil kā haal

har naala ik kalīd-e-dar-e-ganj-e-rāz hai

us sang-e-astan pe jabin-e-niyaz hai

wo apni ja-namaz hai aur ye namaz hai

na-saz hai jo hum se usi se ye saz hai

kya KHub dil hai wah hamein jis pe naz hai

pahuncha hai shab kamand laga kar wahan raqib

sach hai haram-zade ki rassi daraaz hai

us but pe gar KHuda bhi ho aashiq to aae rashk

har-chand jaanta hun ki wo pak-baz hai

maddah-e-KHal-e-ru-e-butan hun mujhe KHuda

baKHshe to kya ajab ki wo nukta-nawaz hai

Darta hun KHanjar us ka na bah jae ho ke aab

mere gale mein nala-e-ahan-gudaz hai

darwaza mai-kade ka na kar band mohtasib

zalim KHuda se Dar ki dar-e-tauba baz hai

KHana-KHarabiyan dil-e-bimar-e-gham ki dekh

wo hi dawa KHarab hai jo KHana-saz hai

shabnam ki ja-e-gul se Tapakti hain shoKHiyan

gulshan mein kis ki KHak-e-shahidan-e-naz hai

aah o fughan na kar jo khule 'zauq' dil ka haal

har nala ek kalid-e-dar-e-ganj-e-raaz hai
